NBA players have no problem getting into arenas around the league -- except for Jeremy Lin.

Yahoo reports newly signed Charlotte Hornets point guard Jeremy Lin had a little bit of trouble with one of the team's security guards. Lin tweeted about the unfortunate incident below:

Lin signed a 2-year, $4.4 million dollar deal with the Hornets this offseason.

This isn't the first time Lin has been in this situation. During his time with the New York Knicks, Lin had the same problem. In the 2013 documentary "Linsanity," the player provided more details about the New York incident in a voice-over.

"When I got to Madison Square Garden, they stopped me at the player's entrance," Lin said. "They said, 'Where do you think you're going? Are you a trainer?' And then another security guard came over and said, 'Hey ... I think he plays on the team!'"

In a world where superstars like Lebron James and Kevin Durant are easily recognized, Lin sits outside the superstar circle. During Linsanity, Lin made his presence felt with six straight 20-point games, including that massive 38-point explosion against Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers on the court at the World's Most Famous Arena. He also made the Valentine's Day game-winner over future Knick Jose Calderon in Toronto in 2011.

You would think that Lin would get more recognition around the league, but he doesn't. Looks like he has a lot of work to do, as he will lead the Hornets and try to get recognized by the team's security staff.

Maybe if Lin leads the Hornets to the playoffs this season, everybody will know who he is.
